Answer:

Ok so.... this is a multiplication problem. You need to do 6 x 18 to find out how many people can be seated in all at the 18 tables. Well, 6 x 18 = 108. So, 108 people can be seated at all the tables altogether. Final answer: 108

This is a multiplication problem because you're looking for how many people can be seated. But, if there were 18 people and 6 people were allowed per table, but you wanted to know how many tables were needed; that would be a division problem. Hope this was what you were looking for!
